Shockwaves are reverberating across Yorùbáland and the global Yorùbá diaspora following the sudden death of the Baba Ọba (King’s Father) of the famed Oyotunji African Village in South Carolina, USA. The late Baba Ọba, Lukman Arohunfale, a revered socialite and traditionalist, passed away under circumstances already sparking fierce controversy. His death comes just days after he publicly accused the newly installed Alaafin of Oyo, His Imperial Majesty Oba Akeem Adéyẹmọ Owoade, of allegedly ordering his courtiers to beat him mercilessly during a recent courtesy visit to the Oyo palace in Nigeria. In a widely circulated voice recording, the deceased recounted how what was meant to be a simple homage turned violent. Although the Baba Ọba had reportedly battled ill health in the past year, growing insinuations suggest that the alleged physical assault may have aggravated his condition, ultimately leading to his untimely death. The palace in Oyo recently denied that s...
Nollywood actress, Chioma Ifemeludike, has stated that Tiwa Savage must apologise to her fans concerning the release of her alleged sex tape.
Two weeks ago, Tiwa Savage had revealed during an interview with American OAP, Angie Martinez of Power 105.1, that she was being blackmailed by an unknown person who threatened to release a sex tape that featured her and her current lover.
The Koroba singer revealed that the blackmailer demanded money from her so as not to release the sex tape but she has decided not to pay the money.
On Monday night, a sex tape leaked online. While the face of the man involved in it did not show, the lady in the video bears a close resemblance with Tiwa Savage.
As the video has gone viral, social media users on several platforms have taken to their accounts to air their opinion on the situation, and some wasted no time in blaming the singer.
However, some celebrities have drummed up support for the singer, as they uploaded her picture and hailed her on Instagram.
Former Big Brother Naija Shine Ya Eye finalist, Angel, earlier slammed critics for blaming the singer, adding that leaking such a video is a criminal offense.
Ifemeludike, however, condemned the act by Tiwa Savage, stating that the singer should apologise to her fans.
In an Instagram post, she said, “Even though I find this supposed ‘sex tape drama’ as a huge distraction, I haven’t seen the video and I have no care in the world what an adult does with her personal life but my people, bad thing na bad thing, especially if it’s coming from a person young people look up to.
“You may want to defend this disgusting trend by saying ‘she didn’t release it bla bla bla’ but in a normal society, I’d expect the person in question to expose whoever is behind this act, for accountability and persecution.
“She needs to publicly admit her carelessness and apologise to her fans. We can’t keep saluting immoral behaviours while our young daughters watch.
“She’s been also accused of intentionally allowing this video to flood the internet space at the same time her latest music video is launched.
“These are all speculations. I don’t believe them but Tiwatope Savage Balogun must clear the air for posterity and our growing daughters! Sex is a sacred gift given to humans to enjoy in matrimony by God.”
The actress added that people are hailing ‘evil’ because it involves Tiwa Savage, stating that such people are hypocrites.
“Because It’s Tiwa savage everyone is hailing evil , if it’s Chioma Grace Ifemeludike or one regular female in Nigeria, everyone will scream she is chasing clout or she is desperate.
“This hypocrisy is the reason so many ‘polithieftians’ get away with crimes against humanity. So many men of God are not held accountable, so many celebrities don’t have sense! Hypocrisy is worse than corruption!”
